Transcriptome-wide Identification of RNA-Binding Protein and MicroRNA Target Sites by PAR-CLIP

TL;DR: This study developed a cell-based crosslinking approach to determine at high resolution and transcriptome-wide the binding sites of cellular RBPs and miRNPs and revealed that these factors bind thousands of sites containing defined sequence motifs and have distinct preferences for exonic versus intronic or coding versus untranslated transcript regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Suppression of inflammation by a synthetic histone mimic

TL;DR: A synthetic compound (I-BET) is described that by ‘mimicking’ acetylated histones disrupts chromatin complexes responsible for the expression of key inflammatory genes in activated macrophages, and confers protection against lipopolysaccharide-induced endotoxic shock and bacteria-induced sepsis.

Method of sequencing a nucleic acid

TL;DR: In this article, methods and apparatuses for sequencing a nucleic acid are presented. But their methods require a large number of independent sequencing reactions to be arrayed in parallel, permitting simultaneous sequencing of a very large number (>10,000) of different oligonucleotides.
